The Master’s Mask Unveiled Again
Chapter 581 - Chapter 581 Chapter 580 Boys must learn to protect themselves outside

Chapter 581: Chapter 580: Boys must learn to protect themselves outside Chapter 581: Chapter 580: Boys must learn to protect themselves outside Fu Shuangshuang didn’t understand why the title “Captain” didn’t sound very impressive.

It was Shao Yunxuan who knew, the people staying at Yangfan Hotel were not ordinary at all.

After checking Baidu, she said in astonishment, “They are the Shadow Hunting Team, the CTF world champions…

The one just now, was their captain, Sniper…”

“Winning the world championship in computer games?” Fu Shuangshuang was skeptical.

“It’s actually quite impressive; they’ve even been personally received by the President…” Shao Yunxuan said softly, regretting that she hadn’t taken the chance to have a proper conversation with that legend just now.

Weng Xia gasped, “Do they have money then?”

“Yes.” Shao Yunxuan nodded stiffly: “The official team members are all worth nine figures and above…”

“…” Fu Shuangshuang’s face stiffened, “How did Lu Mian get mixed up with these people?

And just now, their team members mentioned Lu Mian?

Is she also a member of their team?”

“No way.” Shao Yunxuan shook her head, “It says here that the Shadow Hunting Team never recruits female members.

It must be because of Mr.

Xiao’s influence, I guess…”

“I knew it, she’s just riding on Mr.

Xiao’s coattails!” Fu Shuangshuang pouted.

Then, as if remembering something, she hastily asked her mother, “Mom, do I look okay today?”

“Of course, my daughter is the most beautiful!”

Fu Shuangshuang smiled with satisfaction.

She smiled so hard that her stomach began to feel a little strained.

“Mom, I feel a bit uncomfortable, I’ll go to the bathroom…”

“Me too, I’ll go as well.” Shao Yunxuan got up to leave.

Weng Xia was a bit better, not having a flare-up yet, but she kept feeling a rumbling in her stomach.

The three of them ran to the bathroom several times, feeling almost drained and no longer had the energy to speak ill of Lu Mian.

By the time Lu Mian returned, the three of them were feeling slightly better.

Lu Mian came back hand in hand with Xiao Qimo, and when they reached the lobby, they were a little surprised and amused to see the three women sitting on the sofa.

They had really come looking for her, just as her younger uncle said, and so quickly too.

Lu Mian greeted them indifferently.

Her gaze fell on Fu Shuangshuang and Shao Yunxuan, noting that like starving mad dogs, they were staring unblinkingly at Director Qimo.

Their eyes were practically bulging out.

Feeling displeased, Lu Mian subtly moved closer to Xiao Qimo’s side, shielding that refined gentleman.

Suddenly, her black wristwatch vibrated, and Lu Mian’s expression changed slightly.

The people in the training room cheered upon hearing her return, excitedly calling out to her.

“Lu Mian, the deity, we need helpaEUR””

“You should come up first and help us with this problem.

Yun Sang’s method of cracking it is too complicated; we can’t understand it!”

“Lu Mian, the deity, we need you.”

Lu Mian couldn’t have been happier, and casually told Weng Xia, “I’m busy,” before turning and rushing off.

As she left, she didn’t forget to take Xiao Qimo with her.

She was determined not to leave Director Qimo alone; Fu Shuangshuang and Shao Yunxuan’s eyes were almost stuck to him.

It was too risky to let him deal with these three women on his own.

Weng Xia and her party watched woodenly as Lu Mian left, growing angrier.

“Mom, look at her!

Does she even care about her relatives anymore?

Just because she’s found a good boyfriend, look how arrogant she’s become!” Fu Shuangshuang shouted in anger.

Weng Xia, clutching her not-so-comfortable belly, gestured to her daughter, “Be patient; when she comes out, I will definitely have a word with her!”

Shao Yunxuan worried, “Auntie, will she forgive me…?”

Weng Xia reassured her, “She dares!

Don’t worry, Yunxuan, with me here, everything will be fine!”

Upstairs, Lu Mian quickly solved a technical problem for the team and took a few laps around the training room before leisurely heading downstairs.

Xiao Qimo wanted to go with her, but Lu Mian stopped him.

The girl’s little face was quite serious, “You wait here, I’ll be right back.”

“Can’t I see anyone now?” the man complained.

Lu Mian pursed her lips, speaking earnestly, “Boys must learn to protect themselves outside and avoid meeting all sorts of messy people.”

“…” Xiao Qimo found this notion extremely amusing and couldn’t help but chuckle.

“Especially a handsome boy like you,” Lu Mian added.

Xiao Qimo was amused by her, looking at her serious little face; he found her very cute.

He reached out and pinched her cheek, “Naughty.”

But he respected her wishes and didn’t go downstairs.

It was Yun Sang who was particularly eager, leaving his teammates behind again, following Lu Mian down to the lobby.

Fu Shuangshuang and Shao Yunxuan craned their necks to see behind Lu Mian, and, not seeing Xiao Qimo, they felt somewhat disappointed.

Lu Mian took note of their behavior.

As soon as Weng Xia saw Lu Mian, she took on an elder’s airs.

“Lu Mian, do you still know I’m your aunt?

Is this how you treat your elders?

Who was it that got kicked out and I kindly took you in for a year, catering to your every need, and in the end, I’m still not appreciated, right?”

Listening to these words, Yun Sang felt annoyed, but a sense of pity arose without reason.

Was this girl’s life at home really so miserable?

Lu Mian, neither anxious nor annoyed, remembered Fu Yu’s words.

Upon entering the lobby, she walked past Weng Xia and the other two standing there and settled herself down.

“Aunt, speak your mind.

What do you want?”

Weng Xia paused for a moment, “Apart from that, I brought Yunxuan here to reconcile with you.”

“Reconcile what?”

“Regardless of whatever grievances you had before, now that Yunxuan has the intention to make peace, you shouldn’t leverage your boyfriend to pressure her.

Do you really want to drive her to a dead-end?

In my opinion, you’re not strangers, so stop dwelling on these issues, huh!”

Some people talk as though they’re persuading peace, doing a good deed.

In fact, they’re just indifferent bystanders, standing on the moral high ground, spouting lofty but irrelevant speeches about justice and benevolence.

Yun Sang felt a pain in his liver from the irritation.

When Yunxuan had colluded with Shen Yiyao to hire mercenaries to assassinate Lu Mian, why didn’t they advocate for reconciliation?

Unable to contain his anger, his eyes blinked continuously, almost cramping, hinting to Lu Mian to be tough and definitely not to be persuaded.

Lu Mian nodded at him, indicating she had a clear mind.

Her gaze was clear as she turned to smile at Shao Yunxuan, “Shao Yunxuan, I haven’t come looking for you yet, but you’ve come to me.

Do you think being disqualified from the art exam wasn’t punishment enough?”

Her tone was light, yet it sent a shiver through Shao Yunxuan’s soul.

“Lu Mian, I already said I want to make peace with you.

Why do you have to be so petty?

Aren’t you listening to your aunt anymore?”

Named by her, Weng Xia instantly lost face, “Lu Mian, youaEUR””

Lu Mian cast a sharp glance at her, “Don’t preach goodness when you don’t understand the suffering of others.

You, shut up.”

Her tone was calm, yet filled with a commanding presence, silencing Weng Xia immediately.

Not willing to give in, Weng Xia was nonetheless taken aback by the force of Lu Mian’s gaze in that moment, feeling a chill in her heartaEUR|

Having handled that, Lu Mian casually leaned back on the sofa, texting on her phone while shaking her head at Shao Yunxuan, “Actually, had you not come to see me today, I would’ve almost forgotten about you.

Why bother?”

She paused, and when her gaze lifted again, the chill in her eyes was like a cold winter’s ice cellar, freezing to the bone.

Shao Yunxuan took a nervous step back.

Lu Mian scoffed.

“Take off the miniature camera on you.

You’re still too green to catch me in a fault.”
